Generative AI is on everyone’s lips – and the pressure to deploy the technology productively is growing every day. Executives across Europe are facing the same question:
How can we leverage the efficiency and potential of Gen AI without falling into the traps of GDPR, data protection, and uncontrollable risks?

The concern is valid. Many promising AI initiatives fail at the planning stage – not because of the technology, but due to compliance concerns.

But what if your first step into enterprise AI didn’t have to be risky or complex?
What if you could realize the benefits of Gen AI without ever touching sensitive customer data?

The Pragmatic Entry Point: A Gen AI FAQ Assistant Based on Public Information

The solution is surprisingly simple: Start with your public data.
The Acceleraid Gen AI FAQ Assistant is built entirely on information you already make publicly available – making it the ideal low-risk use case for a secure, GDPR-compliant introduction to AI.

The Dilemma: Innovation Pressure Meets Data Privacy Concerns

IT leaders know the situation:
Management demands rapid AI implementation, while legal and compliance teams raise red flags over data risks. Projects involving CRM, ERP, or customer data often stall due to legal reviews, consent requirements, or integration barriers.

This tension slows down innovation. But it doesn’t have to – as long as you choose the right starting point.

The Ideal Use Case: Your First AI Employee is a FAQ Chatbot

Imagine a new team member who never sleeps, knows every official detail about your products and services, and can instantly answer customer questions 24/7. That’s the Acceleraid Gen AI FAQ Assistant.

Its key advantage lies in its knowledge base, which consists only of curated, publicly available information, such as:

• Your entire website content
• Official FAQ pages
• Product and service manuals (PDF)
• Articles from your public knowledge base
• Technical documentation

It uses exactly the information you already share with customers and prospects.
What it doesn’t access: CRM data, transaction histories, internal emails, or any other personal or sensitive information.

Compliance by Design: Why This Approach Avoids GDPR Pitfalls

This focus on public data is the key to minimizing risk and makes the FAQ Assistant the perfect entry-level AI use case from a GDPR standpoint:

• No processing of personal data (for training): The assistant’s knowledge base contains no personal data as defined by Art. 4 of the GDPR. This eliminates the need to justify a legal basis (e.g., consent or legitimate interest) under Art. 6 for model training.
• Data minimization principle: The approach strictly follows the principle of data minimization – using only the data truly necessary to answer general questions.
• Controlled “Walled Garden” Architecture: The Acceleraid Assistant is not a black box that blindly sends queries to an external public model. Instead, we use a modern architecture known as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). This means: when a user submits a question, the system first searches exclusively within your approved knowledge base for relevant information.
  Only then does the language model generate a precise response based on these verified facts.
  This prevents so-called “hallucinations” (AI inventing facts) and ensures that all answers consistently reflect your official position.

Immediate Benefits: Quick Wins for Service and Efficiency

Once deployed, the Gen AI FAQ Assistant delivers tangible, measurable benefits beyond just risk avoidance:

• 24/7 availability: Customers get instant, qualified answers anytime – even outside your service hours.
• Significant service team relief: The assistant handles up to 80% of recurring standard inquiries. Your human experts gain more time for complex, advisory-driven, and value-generating customer interactions.
• Consistent communication: Every answer aligns 100% with your official information – no more conflicting responses from different team members.
• Ultra-fast implementation: With no deep integration into core systems, the assistant can go live within days. Time-to-value is unbeatable.
